When I first saw this dress on RTR, I knew that it was the one. I reserved it a couple months in advanced and counted down the days until it would get here. I originally ordered the size 2R, but got a 4R as my backup size, just in case. About a week before my prom, I received an email saying that my original size 2 was not returned on time by the previous renter, so unfortunately, it would not be able to be shipped to me on time. So, I was able to pick out a backup dress in my original size, but I still was able to receive my original dress. When the two dresses arrived, I immediately tried both of them on. My original dress fit perfectly, with the exception of the sleeves, which were quite large. But, the backup dress fit like a glove, and it was incredibly comfortable. I was torn. A couple of days passed, and I finally decided on a dress (with the opinions of a few friends). Of course I chose the gorgeous Reem Acra that I had originally picked. And, I could not be happier that I picked it. It looked phenomenal in pictures, and I felt like a princess! The layers of tulle were a bit difficult and hot to dance in, but it was worth it. I would suggest getting a size up (like I did), though. The sleeves were a bit big, but fashion tape did the trick, and I had a hard time filling the bust out on my own, so I wore a very padded bra. I had a feeling that the bottom would come off the floor a little bit when I had heels on, but I actually liked that it did that. I am 5'2" and wore 4" heels; it came off the floor about an inch or two. Overall, I am incredibly happy that I chose this dress, and I didn't want to send it back! It definitely made my senior prom a memorable one!
